Wow, went to update my review only to find out if never posted my original review. Trendy place with good food. It gets busy, so either be prepared to wait or go early. It isnt exactly a quiet place, but the food and service are top notch!

Bloody Mary & the Stowaway Kitchen's Oyakodon Bowl
John C.

This was a very unusual place, but excellent nonetheless. Service was excellent. The food was very unique and excellent as well. They're only open for breakfast and lunch and they close at three I think so you better check. I usually don't drink, but I wanted to try their Bloody Mary, and of course, it was excellent as well spicy and good. For my lunch, I got the Oyakodon Bowl with scrambled eggs & spinach. This was very unique and excellent as well. They have a lot of vegetarian dishes and only maybe four dishes that have meat in them and it was chicken. Still it was excellent.

Amazing breakfast. Interesting and totally different kind of menu. Great service. Simple design that appreciates art and culture inside.

Kara-a-ge Chicken Sando

Service was amazing. Our server was super friendly, had great conversations with us, and kept checking in. 9/10. The vibe is casual with a cute cafe feel. 8.5/10. The yuzu waffles were the standout. Easily one of the best waffles I've had. The sourdough base with the yuzu cream had the perfect level of sweetness, and the texture and flavor were really unique compared to a typical waffle. 9.5/10. The chicken karaage sando was solid. It reminded me of a Chick-fil-A style sandwich but a bit more elevated. 7.5/10. The matcha latte was high quality, earthy, and not sweet. 7.7/10.

We came here for brunch before going on a hike. I had read the reviews and was excited for this place. There was a bit of a wait when we got there, but I came in thinking that every great place that is worth it with great food always has a wait. The server was really friendly. However, I was not too impressed with the food. I got the salmon and it just tasted very bland.

This cute brunch spot is a warm, cozy hug with Japanese flair. It's easy to miss from the outside, but the aura points for inside decor are off the charts. Made a reservation for 3 on a weekend and we were seated pretty quickly. Tables were consistently full and staff pretty busy, but the seats are spaced out enough that you don't feel like sardines. This is a place to find zen amongst the neutral and cool earth tones while eating food that is both nourishing and tasty. Food is all made to order in the tiny kitchen in back with generous portion sizes. I do recommend ordering a drink and pastries to nibble on while you wait for your entree. We loved the dishware and intentional presentation of each dish. Even the Aeropress coffee came in a beautiful ceramic carafe - although it was a little misleading given the actual quantity of coffee. Staff was super friendly and never made us feel rushed. The menu changes with seasonal themes and produce. Exhibit A, the Spooky Donuts with the cutest glazed spider donut hole on top. Donut was just alright, but we did really enjoy the sesame chocolate glaze. Exhibit B, Autumn Beans with pickled apricots and carrots that we saw being brought in fresh by one of the staff. The colors in each dish are vibrant and wholesome, with gentle seasoning. I often hate myself after eating a big brunch of skillets and waffles - not so here, where I was comfortably full without being nauseous from grease.

We had a nice time at Stowaway. The server told us they had been there 10 years. There no signage out front so it was a little hard to find. The food was decent, it spectacular. The Japanese asa-gohan had great ingredients but it was dry and lacked flavor. It needed sauce. They make a Bloody Mary with mezcal- it was interesting and delicious if you like smoky. My friend liked the waffle but said it was too much sweet on sweet and needed something salty like bacon to balance it out. Sadly, they don't have bacon. The place was cute and people were very friendly. Parking can be a challenge.

Japanese fusion done right. Such cool variety on their menu, and great service, too. Clearly a place for foodies.

Cute hip location that blends brunch with Japanese style. I got: Apple and cheddar scone - tasty! Not super flavorful but fluffy Tomato panzanella salad - so good! The croutons were amazing Oyako-don - also so good! Highly recommend

Spring pea tartine, oyakodon, plum basque cheesecake waffle
May H.

Interesting menu and all our dishes we ordered were really good. Highly recommend getting spinach with the oyakodon. Also recommend the waffle - super crispy and chewy and plum sauce elevated it. Interior is super cute and aesthetic. Felt very Bay Area or atleast my Bay Area Mom in the best way (Rancho Gordo beans and einkorn sourdough waffles).

Donut

The service was great, the vibes were high, the food was delish! What else could you need? Y'all this was literally the best waffle I've ever had! The subtle salt on it is a game changer. Make sure to order one for the table to share. I really loved all the art they had displayed through out the restaurant. The coffee and donut were just * okay * to me but everything else was great!

Autumn beans! With a poached egg and avocado!

We walked in on Friday and unfortunately it was about to be 2PM and they couldn't seat us. (Sooooooooo sad) but a gentleman approached us and said that he could make a reservation for us for the next day. (That was really nice to offer) the next day we came one and all i have to say is this is how my favorite restaurant. The food was spectacular! The autumn beans had so much flavor it was incredible! The drinks were fantastic and the service was amazing. The whole vibe from the food to the atmosphere was amazing. I will be a regular here because it's really really really worth it.

I used to live in Denver and this was my go to spot for brunch. I love it so much. I get the Japanese breakfast every single time. Except this most recent visit, they were out of the salmon but substituted it with the chicken per my request. It's such a cozy environment, great tunes, and welcoming service. I think I've been here more than five times and visit Denver often so I always make sure to have a reservation (highly recommended). The restaurant is in the RiNo Art District, a prime location that is walkable with cool street art and the Denver Central Market nearby so be sure to take a walk after.

The three cozy pods were already occupied, but I was able to grab a seat at one of the two communal work tables, which gave me easy access to an outlet to charge my phone. They also offer free wifi. There were plenty of other seating options too, including lounge chairs and bar seating. They even have a billiards table! I ordered an iced London fog and opted for coconut milk, which is not typically available as a milk alternative. It came with vanilla syrup by default and was very good. I also tried the bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich on an English muffin. This was the only disappointing part of my visit. It seemed like a premade sandwich that had been reheated, so the bacon was soft rather than crispy, which is my preference. Overall, Vibe Coffee & Wine is worth a quick stop, but it is especially nice as a place to relax, hang out, or settle in and do a little work.

There are towering ceilings and comfortable chairs. There are enough electrical outlets to power a small army of laptop philosophers who are pretending to write important books. It looks like a place where profound human connections ought to happen. Mine did not. The baristas handled my order as though enthusiasm had recently been made a felony by the federal government. They were not malicious. They simply performed the transactional ritual of caffeinating a stranger with the exact emotional investment of a parking meter. The beverage itself was perfectly adequate. Bad coffee inspires anger. This coffee merely inspired a quiet acceptance of my own mortality. It was average in that completely forgettable way that makes you wonder why you parted with currency for a specialty drink in the first place. If you need a nice chair to sit in while the world falls apart, you will find it here. If you are looking for a memorable cup or a warm human interaction, you will probably leave remembering the furniture.

I got the Peach Cobbler Cube (because who doesn't like geometrically-shaped pastries?) and a seasonal Black Walnut Latte. Instantly validated by the barista, who said this was her favorite drink. I did get iced against my better will because it's an unseasonably hot fall day, and I plan to walk to area. Still delicious! Also elated to hear that they offer trivia at this and their other location on Wednesday and Tuesday nights, respectively. My only gripe is that parking was difficult, however, easily remedied as they are right outside of Union Bus Terminal.
